All the Rage: Book Tastings

If you’ve chanced by the Learning Commons lately, you might have seen an unusual gathering of students. The lights are dim and soft music is playing. Teens are seated around candlelit tables graced with tablecloths, placemats and name cards. Platters of books are on each table and students are devouring literature in various genres: classics, dystopian, fantasy, adventure, mystery, and science fiction. You are witnessing a book tasting, a tradition here in the Learning Commons.
